Termination for Patent Challenge Each Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon written notice to the other effective upon receipt, if a Party or any of its wholly-owned Affiliates formally challenges the validity of any Patents that are licensed to it under this Agreement (subject to the exceptions described in this Section 14.2(e), a “Challenge”) (other than as may be necessary or reasonably required to assert a defense, cross-claim or a counter-claim in an action or proceeding asserted by a Party or any of its wholly-owned Affiliates under this Agreement against the other Party or any of its Affiliates or to respond to a court request or order or administrative law, request or order); it being understood and agreed that a Party’s right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 14.2(e) shall not apply to any actions undertaken by an Affiliate of such Party that first becomes such an Affiliate as a result of a Change of Control involving such Party, where such new Affiliate was undertaking any of the activities described in the foregoing clause prior to such Change of Control if such new Affiliate terminates or otherwise ceases participating in such action, proceeding, challenge or opposition within thirty (30) days after the effective date of such Change of Control. If a sublicensee of a Party initiates a Challenge of the intellectual property described in this Section 14.2(e), then such Party shall, upon written notice from the other Party, terminate such sublicense. Neither Party shall, and each Party shall ensure that its Affiliates and sublicensees do not, use or disclose any Confidential Information of the other Party or any nonpublic information regarding the Prosecution or enforcement of any Patents to which a Party or any of its Affiliates or sublicensees are or become privy as a consequence of the rights granted to such Party pursuant to this Agreement, in initiating, requesting, making, filing or maintaining, or in funding or otherwise assisting any other Person with respect to, any Challenge.

Joint Patent Rights If not already established under the Research Collaboration Agreement, prior to either Party filing any Patent Right disclosing Joint Program Technology or Joint TAP Platform Improvements, the Parties shall establish a patent committee (the “Patent Committee”) comprised of at least one (1) representative of each Party for the purpose of facilitating the preparation, filing, prosecution, maintenance and defense of Joint Patent Rights. As agreed upon by the Parties, meetings of the Patent Committee may be face-to-face or may be conducted by teleconferences or videoconferences, from time to time as needed. The Patent Committee will be the forum through which the Parties coordinate their respective obligations to each other described in Sections 5.2.2 and 5.2.3 hereof and in this Section. In the event the Parties conceive or generate any Joint Program [***] Certain information contained herein has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions. Confidential Treatment Requested by CytomX Therapeutics, Inc.

It is presumed that CytomX will control filing, prosecution and maintenance of Joint Patent Rights claiming Joint Program Technology or Joint Unconjugated Probody Platform Improvements, and that ImmunoGen will control filing, prosecution and maintenance of Joint Patent Rights claiming Joint TAP Platform Improvements or Joint Conjugation Probody Platform Improvements. Neither Party will file any Joint Patent Right without the prior written consent of the other Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The Party controlling filing and prosecution of any such Joint Patent Right (a) shall keep the other Party informed regarding each Patent Right, (b) shall consider in good faith any recommendations made by the other Party in regard to the filing, prosecution or maintenance of any such Patent Right and (c) shall not unreasonably refuse to incorporate any recommendations made by the other Party in regard to such filing, prosecution or maintenance.
Termination by Licensee 10.1.

Licensed Patent Rights The term “Licensed Patent Rights” shall mean rights arising out of or resulting from:
Termination for Material Breach If either Party (the “Non-Breaching Party”) believes that the other Party (the “Breaching Party”) has materially breached one or more of its material obligations under this Agreement, then the Non-Breaching Party may deliver notice of such material breach to the Breaching Party (a “Default Notice”). If the Breaching Party does not dispute that it has committed a material breach of one or more of its material obligations under this Agreement, then if the Breaching Party fails to cure such breach within *** days after receipt of the Default Notice, or if such compliance cannot be fully achieved through diligent efforts within such *** day period but the Breaching Party has failed to promptly commence compliance or has failed to use diligent efforts to achieve full compliance as soon thereafter as is reasonably possible, or if full compliance is not achieved in any event within *** days after receipt of the Default Notice, then the Non-Breaching Party may terminate this Agreement upon written notice to the Breaching Party. If the Breaching Party disputes that it has materially breached one or more of its material obligations under this Agreement, the dispute shall be resolved pursuant to Section 11.7. If, as a result of the application of such dispute resolution procedures, the Breaching Party is determined to be in material breach of one or more of its material obligations under this Agreement (an “Adverse Ruling”), then if the Breaching Party fails to cure any breach specified by the Adverse Ruling within *** days after such ruling, or if such compliance cannot be fully achieved through diligent efforts within such *** day period but the Breaching Party has failed to promptly commence compliance or has failed to use diligent efforts to achieve full compliance as soon thereafter as is reasonably possible, or if full compliance is not achieved in any event within *** days after the Adverse Ruling, then the Non-Breaching Party may terminate this Agreement upon written notice to the Breaching Party.
Termination by Either Party This Agreement may be terminated upon 60 days written notice without cause or penalty by either the Company (acting through the Conflicts Committee) or the Advisor. The provisions of Articles 1, 10, 12, 13, 15 and 16 shall survive termination of this Agreement.
Termination by Licensor Licensor, at its option, may immediately terminate the Agreement, or any part of Licensed Subject Matter, or any part of Field of Use, or any part of Territory, or the exclusive nature of the license grant, upon delivery of written notice to Licensee of Licensor’s decision to terminate, if any of the following occur:
